Summary0013166: Resurrecting party member causes crash
DescriptionRe-Resurrecting party characters after thawed from ice causes game to crash on save/exit, or for your re- characters
Steps To Reproduce1. Create a necromancer A and another character B
3. Drown B by manually taking them under water and use A to Raise as an intelligent undead.
4. Park B in water that is about to freeze. Let the frozen water freeze over them.
5. Wait until the water is about to thaw then ensure you are there when the Thaw occurs (Important: You must not be wait/sleeping when the water unthaws as otherwise they will still be 'encased' and cannot be resurrected, which may be another possibly unrelated issue. You want to 'see' the water thaw)
6. Resurrect the fresh corpses.

This will work momentarily but moving the characters around, getting into a fight or saving/quitting will result in all sorts of buggy behaviour from your characters going missing, to

Expected Behaviour: Characters resurrected will be returned to un-life with the cumulative powers from the necromantic texts used to re-resurrect them.
Additional InformationI was doing some necromantic experiments to try and give my characters cumulative powers from multiple necromantic texts. Was overjoyed when I saw the experiment work (best thing about the game imho!) but then the game seems to be in a bad state therafter. Can provide saves with a convenient setup or freshly thawed (killed) undead, but don't know how.

Just checked resurrecting a non undead sentient party member after freezing then thawing and that seems to work fine.
